Heller in Pink Tights is a 1960 western film directed by George Cukor. It is based on the 1955 novel Helen with a Gun by Louis L'Amour.A traveling theater troupe headed by Thomas Healy (Anthony Quinn) puts on a performance at Cheyenne, Wyoming. Healy's leading lady and girlfriend, Angela Rossini (Sophia Loren), tries to make up for her spending habits by betting on a poker game, but loses to gunslinger Clint Mabry (Steve Forrest). As Angela does not have the money to pay him, Mabry refuses to let her go, and the troupe becomes involved in his quarrel with the powerful and wealthy De Leon, who hired Mabry as an assassin but wants him dead to avoid paying him.

Ms. Red Ink: Angela is notorious for her excessive spending on clothes, a habit which lands the Healy Dramatic Company in financial trouble, since Healy enables her.
